Then May decided that enough was enough and skipped straight to November.



Still, it's not like we couldn't use the rain, but did you have to go all cold and windy just as mayfly starting to hatch with vengeance on the Avon???

The Nadder has still been fishing pretty slowly, even during the warm weather we had over recent weeks. A few good hatches of small black flies, I'll refer to them as 'gnats' provided some sport on the warmer evenings, especially further up the Nadder above Barford.

But on the Avon.....

MAYFLY!

wheeee :)

It's only a start, the fish only just turning on to the danica and only sporadic hatches for now. The next couple of weeks (weather dependent) should be excellent fishing and it's that once yearly chance to target those big old wary trout that lurk in amongst the roots and overhanging branches.

So there's something to look forward to but for now it's back to the view from my world...
